  • Publication number: 20120243878
    Abstract: The present invention is a radio frequency and digital signal dual carrier multiple modulation system that includes a transmitter system with digital components that include digital inputs, carrier signal sources, a multiplexer and logic controlled radio frequency switches that produces modulated signals and radio frequency components that includes radio frequency signal input and a radio frequency variable gain amplifier. There is also a receiver system with digital components that include a demultiplexer, buffer amplifiers, detectors, comparators and digital signal outputs that receive modulated signals from the transmitter system and radio frequency components with another radio frequency variable gain amplifier that receives the radio frequency output from the transmitter system and produces an amplified radio frequency output.
